Janet was it missed ...or just anterior? An anterior praevia needs to be cut through to deliver a baby at C/S...what I'm trying to say is it would have been irrelevant that they missed it cos it needed to be cut thru' anyway! I'd be more pissed at them for missing it earlier in the pregnancy if

I would like to share my experience of this over the past week.( with the permission of my client of course) I have a client who's baby was breech until 33/34 weeks after using natural therapies I felt that it had turned. At 37+ weeks she felt huge movements then nothing for 2 days. She

This reminds me of the time we accompanied a woman into hospital in premature labour, with PROM and recently suspected twin pregnancy (no previous scans), and multiple midwifery and medical palps later, and three (count them, three) confirming ultrasound scans later, the woman gave birth

"Or what if some babies just move around right up until the end." Yep too true. Someone I know online had a breech flip just before she pushed it out! Full dilation then a massive movement and a head coming down! Definitely a breech to that point : ) Of course it was a home birth... J

A woman I know had 3 (yes 3) u/s in LABOUR to be dx with a breech except they missed her complete placenta praevia and sliced through it opening her up. Another triumph of technology, clearly! J - Original Message - From: Michelle Windsor To:

There was an article in the SMH last week - sorry don't have ref to researchers name at my fingertips -that indicated that midwives and doctors were on par at missing breeches. and that 1/3 of breeches were missed. There was a quote from Adelaide Ob Brian Peat saying this evidence supports

The woman has to be pretty strong and fight if she wants a breech birth any place other than a home birth. OB's are all scared and want to do a CS regardless of what type of breech, whether she has had babies before etc etc. Cheers Judy [EMAIL PROTECTED] 9/08/2006 5:51:06 pm I'm curious,

I was going to ask who did the palpations, but the article told me. Each woman was examined in the usual way by a doctor to assess the position of their baby. Afterwards the women also underwent an ultrasound scan to confirm the position. I agree some women are difficult to palpate, but
